Day 24 - OctPoWriMo: Travelers

Arches National Park 2010

Travelers

The solo traveler
Sings adventure
not loneliness
Meets no strangers
as she makes her way
Unencumbered
Along roads well-worn
or not taken
Wanders
Encounters compadres
fellow seekers who
Momentarily connect
Become consequential strangers
or maybe friends
Their destinies
to traipse the world



Santorini 2015



Today's Theme: When Lovers Meet


The prompt asks us to consider types of lovers beyond the usual idea when we hear the word. I love to travel: alone, with one other person, in small groups, on tours. Discoveries and connections delight me.
